The concept of transparent caching is the one which involves storing the data next to the subscriber to serve the future requests for the same data quickly. While caching was the only area of website hosting and delivery, it has advanced to mainstream computing and is even integrated into the latest operating systems. In the world of transparent caching content is not pre-provisioned, but the system must identify which is the most popular content from different sources and then stores it locally for delivery. The caching and distribution can be done on a statistical basis by detecting the most requested content, or in accordance with the business rules, in which it is propagated to the local delivery layer via open application program interfaces (APIs).

Transparent caching provides various benefits, including the improvement of user performance and QoE (Quality of Experience) and the reduction of bandwidth usage in the network. It also decreases CAPEX and OPEX by equipping the existing network routers, switches, and internet links to handle more traffic. Furthermore, the rise of video content is a chief driver of the market rising, because it is the largest and fastest growing category of network traffic load over mobile devices. Besides, the most of top IT companies are focusing on the caching technology as a fully managed service to simplify the deployment and ongoing administration. For example, Qwilt, a developer of Edge Cloud applications, has launched “Qwilt Live Stream Cache” - a caching solution for increasing the quality of both live and on-demand streaming videos by caching content at the network edge, close to the consumers.
